Abstract

Weeds constitute one of the major problems in growing corn in Thailand. The general practices for controlling weeds are hoeing and hand weeding, operations that are time consuming and expensive. In the lowlands of Bangkok and neighboring areas, sweetcorn is planted in raisedbeds to prevent flooding during the rainy season. This method of cultivation does not allow the usual typer of mechanical weed control. Chemical weed control, on the other hand, may prove effective and economical.
